Steering Committee Leadership & Public Lands Travel Team Elections

[Brittney Becerra]

 Good morning,

 

In accordance with the CCI bylaws, Steering Committee leadership elections will occur during each committee meeting on January 25^th or 26^th.

 

As stated in the bylaws, Steering Committee leadership:

• is responsible for facilitating dialog during meetings;
• may serve four consecutive, one-year terms and may not simultaneously serve on the CCI Board of Directors;
• is eligible to serve after serving as a county commissioner, mayor, or council member for at least one year;
• will commit to annual CCI leadership training;
• will commit to advocating for and representing CCI’s bill positions;
• will commit to disclosing any conflict in representing CCI’s position; and
• will commit to recusing themselves from taking a position on an issue or legislation if they have a personal or professional conflict.

 

Steering Committee Leaders are expected to:

• objectively facilitate dialog among peers;
• abide by and ensure the code of conduct is followed;
• minimize sharing their own views on matters; and
• help identify consensus building paths forward on policy matters at hand.

 

Additionally, there are three delegate openings on the Public Lands Travel Team. Only commissioners, mayors, or council members from counties that have paid their 2023 Public Lands dues assessment are eligible for these positions. Travelling committee members are expected to attend three National Association of Counties (NACo) events annually. By submitting your letter of intent, you are attesting that you are available to attend required NACo meetings. For questions about Public Lands Travel Team openings, please contact Brittney Becerra (bbec...@ccionline.org/720.202.5296).

 

Nominations will be accepted from the floor, but as a courtesy to your peers, we urge you to submit a letter of intent, using this form (download the word doc)  (download a PDF doc), by Friday, January 15 to Brittney Becerra(bbec...@ccionline.org). Letters of intent will be posted on the CCI website as they are received and will also be linked in the meeting agenda.

 

The election will be the first item of business during each committee meeting on Thursday, January 25 and Friday, January 26. The individual elected will conduct the remainder of the meeting.

 

For further questions regarding the leadership election process or Steering Committee meetings, contact Brittney Becerra at bbec...@ccionline.org or 720.202.5296.
